Woman's Observations By DOROTHY BRIGMAN SHI'PL' Wall, Monday was the flrst night for Barbara Walters to appear oa TV, and here the news breaks about the secretary of agriculture resigning so she was in on a big J story the first night. I'm glad to ' see a woman get a break like she has done, but she didn't do : it overnight, you know . There's "been many years before this : that she has been doing hard ^ work behind the scenes and is now getting full recognition as a person. You missed a chance to .?shake hands with our next * governor if you missed ! ' Saturday night at Madison .High. Jim Hunt is a very likeable person and I think he will remember our county when it comes to roads and some improvements. I sat across from a Mr. and Mrs. '? ? ? " * ? Msm mil Mitm BUB I nail irvran mats iun ww ?iv formerly Alabamians and it was enjoyable talking with them. Did you see in the paper J where George Wallace's wife had bugged his office? I un ; derstand she was planning to ] write a book about Alabama politics, but George burned all her tapes! Then I also heard that she was was going to run for governor and that he is going'to back her. So I guess they must have kissed and > made up! Dot Reeves wanted to know if I had finally got that stove cleaned. To tell the truth, I did get it clean ? and now it's about as dirty again. There isn't much future in this house cleaning ? you no more than get it done than it is time to start all over again. I really should get into a club of some kind so that I would have to get it clean at least once in a while when people would come to play bridge or some endeavor. I do make up the bed each day and wash the dishes at least every other day and help ? *-1 | onupc uiftc away uic gcu uagc ; ? Boy, those receptacles are wonderful. I think of Jim Ledford and secretly thank him for them each time we use them because, I believe it was his idea to get them. I ran into Mike Metcalf up at Asheville the other day and he plays the piano at Shane's while people are eating their steaks several nights each week. He is also going to Mars Hill College and was telling me that he is majoring in dramatic arts and that his group is about to put on a play and wants all of us to come. Pop and Bill Story came along about that time ? and Pop offered to substitute at the piano for him some night? ! I'd stay away that night. I went over to Cully week before last to see them get ! their first defeat. Saw the chancellor and his wife, but ?BaBBHHBI they dfchit take me up to the the VIP box - They did atop and chat a minute became ?tape. They are a sice couple and he's doing a wonderful job heading the collage at WCU. Then Saturday morning, Charles, Sandy, Tom, Ethel, George and I went down to Knoxvilie to see UT and Osmose play. It was an af ternoon game and a beautiful day, and I had on an old pair of Shape's insulated clothes ? but I didn't get too hot. Guess losing all that weight has made me cold natured. Golly, we got up at 6 a m and that was really hard after getting used toB: 30 or 9 a.m. each day. But as I slowly awakened, it was rather nice to get out early! How about old Appalachian beating my dear WCU Saturday? Charlotte called and pretended it was a collect call to rub it in! OBSERVED ? Saw Jerry Treadwav Sunday for the first time in ages and he looked fine ? said Katy was fine and all his children are married ex cept one ? I guess it has been 30 years since I had seen him ? Can you believe that Christ mas is about here? ? Halloween just around the corner ? Time certainly flies ? Hope all those signs about a mild winter are true ? I still love the snow, but don't care too much about getting out in it ? Stopped at Ingles this morning and Mrs. Buckner was so kind to help me find some things ? give her a raise, Mr. Smith ? Did you have any ? chestnuts? ? Shupe has been bringing me some from where ? he works and I ha ve had one off my tree in the yard ? Running out of space ? Have a good | day!!

The season ex tendi through winter months. Evergreens are very im portant around the home. When combined with plants that shed their leaves in autumn (deciduous), evergreens offer home owners various means of original landscape compositions. The contrast of year-round greenery with seasonal change of deciduous plants adds a natural annparanrp tn thp landscape. In selecting evergreens, be certain to allow space for maturity. A common mistake is in placing a large ? or fast-growing evergreen in a position where there is not enough room for full height and spread. It is well to learn the eventual size of your evergreen. Example: Beneath a window which is 4 feet from the ground, never plant a shurb that grows to 10-12 feet in height. Putting the garden to bed for winter: October is an excellent month in which to attack the many insect and disease problems that could cause trouble next year. Give your garden a thorough clean-up now. Pull out all annuals that have completed their life-cycle and have gone to seed. Cut away tops of all perennials. Remove debris from beneath all plants, including shrubs. If you dig and divide perennials, carefully clean them to remove all dead leaves; as well as bruised, broken, in jured or diseased stems. Storing bulbs; Five common flower garden plants ? dahlia, canna, caladium, gladiolus and tuberous begonia ? do not overwinter in most areas of North Carolina. To save the plants, lift roots, tubers or corms of these about the time of our first killing frost. They may be dug just after foliage dries. Dig deep enough so that part of the plant will not be snapped off when lifted out of the soil. Leave soil around dahlia tubers, canna and caladium roots. Store in a garage or other building until soil dries and falls away from plant parts. Shake soil off roots and tubers, and cut a way dried stem. Discard immediately any plant parts that show soft spots or disease. Place tubers and roots in old sawdust or peat moss in a flat how or nlactir h90 with hftlPS for ventilation. Store in a dry, cool place such as a basement. Do not store on back porch or in garage. These plants cannot withstand freezing. Also, store them away from danger of being eaten by rats, squirrels and other animals. When the first frost arrives most gardeners still have a large number of tomatoes on their plants. Ask around and you'll get any number of suggestions about how to keep these fruits well into the winter. Suggestions will vary from pulling the plants and hanging them upside down in the basement to wrapping the fruit individually with nanpr The truth is that most of these suggestions work. More importantly, hold only those fruits that are free from disease and insects and watch especially around the base of the stem. Fruit worms often burrow into the fruit at that point. Grade the fruit ac cording to degree of ripeness. Those fruits that are red ripe now obviously will not hold too long. Don't pack fruit too deep in a container. The fruits on the bottom are likely to be bruised. The best idea is to lay fruits out in a single layer on a flat surface. Check the fruit periodically to evaluate their degree or soundness. Speaking of the first frost. Keeping a cool head may wJ into the winter. Moat often ul Ant froat of fall comes association with a m.miS weather system and wfl probably not produce !nl more than one or possibly twH successive nights. The pt-nofl following may be as much |H two to four weeks witfl relatively mild growufl weather. What this means is that if wH can cover some of thfl vegetables for one or twH niehts the crowino nennrf be extended two to four week] Of course, a lot depends onto* the first cold spell arrives. Hi hard freeze is predicted ob viously our little schem doesn't work. At this poic science stops and art take over. The greatest danger in the planting of bulbs is poor drainage. Use raised beds if water does not drain away readily. Old rhubarb roots that have run out may be rejuvenated by dividing the crowns into four pieces. These pieces should be replanted at once and fer tilized. Store squashes and pum nlrinc on ro/?lr? r the top of the cellar or in a heated room. They like a temperature of about St degrees. Remove the seed heads of sunflowers before they arc fully ripe and spread in a dry, airy place to cure for about two weeks before removing the seeds. Autumn-planted fruit and ornamental trees should be staked and mounded with soil to prevent wind-whipping during the winter. Store apples in a cellar with 1 a temperature not much above V freezing. Leave the cellar I windows open at night and I close them in the morning, if I possible, until freezing I wwiwii ? , ^omethin^IEW^ I PAPA BEAR Weight 410 lb*. - 18" x 32" Firechamber accepts up to 30" topi.
